Description
nearly flat clump
along comes Hosta 'Barbara Ann'

Athyrium niponicum Lemon Cream Spigelia nearly flat clump(aka: Anisocampium niponicum) We probably should call Athyrium 'Lemon Cream' Japanese splattered fern instead of Japanese painted fern. This Japanese oddity is exactly what people who like this kind of thing will like. The typical lacy green leaves are speckled with lemon cream blotches, barely evident in spring but becoming quite prominent by late summer and early fall. Our clumps of the deciduous Athyrium niponicum 'Lemon Cream' have reached 18"
